But Flowers Don't Grow Here(Cronus x Seadweller!Reader)

**Welp, time for me to be a cliche little shit and do the traumatic one. Hope you all will enjoy!**

Your POV

Day in. Day out. Day thirteen. Day fourteen. I sigh and lay in my recooprecoon, like the past thirteen days. For some odd reason, I had started coughing up these weird plants that don't grow down here in the water. I just want to be normal again! None of the healers can even guess what I have, but I just want to be with my friends again. I read all of my books, watched all of my movies, and played with all my toys. I am bored stiff.

I cough once more and a violet petal flies out of my mouth. I hold it delicately in my pale hand and inspect it. It was coated in my b/c blood. I cough again and more petals came out. I rang a bell for a healer to come by. They have this liquid that would make the coughing pass for a little while and I took it as much as possible. I would get loopy like Gamzee, but it doesn't matter, it hurts so bad. Once they make me swallow it, they leave. Apparently someone else has the same sickness as me, but they never tell me who. Maybe today I'll walk out of my room. So far as the healers know, it isn't contagious.

I hoist myself out of the recooprecoon, my arms weak from lack of energy and needed sleep. When I sleep, I just gain even more petals because my body relaxes. My clothes were covered in slime, but a shapeless dress/robe sort of thing was out, along with the proper underclothes that I need. I change slowly, wincing at all the effort I have to put into it. I take tentative steps with my bare feet, wobbling slightly. I brace myself against the wall for support once I reach it, breathing heavily. I cough, sounding like a meowbeast with a hair ball. I keep walking.

I can hear crying. Crying and vomiting sounds, making me shiver. I can't stand those sounds. I walk to the door where it was sounding the most. The door was closed and there was a patient's information sheet on the door. It surprisingly didn't have the name of the patient, I'm guessing for privacy. I knock on the door softly, and open it. 

"I-I didn't call for anyone." The person stuttered out. I looked at them and saw something I thought I would never see; Cronus Ampora and f/c petal flowing about him, bathed in his blood. I walk up to him and put my hand on his shoulder. "It's me, Cro." I say softly. He looks at me with teary eyes and his face was a blotchy mess of purple and grey. "Y/n, go, I don't wvant you to get hanahaki too." He mumbles. I sit on his bed and cough out flower petals as well. "I already have it. Have had it for thirteen days." He looks at me with pity and wraps his arms around me. "What do you mean by hanahaki?" I ask him, interested. "The hanahaki disease. Wv-wvhere you havwe flowvers bloom in your lungs because of unrequited lovwe." I snuggled deeper into the male's chest. "How do we get rid of it?" I ask. "You can get surgery to get rid of it. But then you'd lose all romantic feelings in the process. Or you get your requited lovwe." I felt tears in my eyes. I don't even know if I love anyone. "I don't want to die, Cro." "I knowv, lovwe. I knowv." I lay down with him, shivering when her started petting my hair. I felt my eyes close, his touch making me calmer. I wrap my arm around his waist and his was underneath my head. I close my eyes drowsily as Cro continues petting me. I am so tired.

-Timeskip to the nest morning--

I open my eyes and stare at Cronus for a second. His steady breathing came out in small puffs and I smile slightly. I had the best sleep since... Well, since the whole thing started. I didn't wake up more than once that night, and that was only to get closer to Cronus to get warm. He rustled and opened his eyes. "Morning Cro," I mumble. "We slept the entire night." He grins and kisses my forehead. I blush a little. "So that's wvhy the flowvers are b/c." He mused. He turned to a small table which was littered in petals. They were my blood color! And mine were violet, like Cronus's blood! 

"I guess I never realized I had an unrequited love with you," I say, laughing slightly. "Same." I curl up beside him. "But look." I cough slightly and nothing came out.

"We're safe. I can say I love you, and we're safe."
